Your Guide to Anything and Everything Boston

Revels (producer of the annual Christmas
Revels and Revels RiverSing)
takes to the sea July 17 in the first of two RevelsBoston Harbor Cruise & Sings
this summer led by Revels music director George Emlen and musician and song
leader David Coffin who’ll also provide narration about Boston Harbor
and its islands.

We’ll sing sea chanteys, work songs and more from John
Langstaff’s final music collection, The
Revels Book of Chanteys and Sea Songs - yours free for the evening -
on this two-hour sunset tour of beautiful Boston Harbor
- an annual treat for Revelers of all ages. Some of the songs we’ll be singing include: Pay Me My Money Down, Blow, Ye Winds, In the Morning, The Coasts of High Barberry, Cape Cod Girls,John
Kanaka, Rolling Home to Old New
England and The Seaman’s
Hymn. At some point on the cruise we’ll even find out
the answer to the classic question, What
Shall We Do with the Drunken Sailor? (Don’t worry. It
won’t be the ship’s Captain or crew.)

Landlubbers & first-time Revelers welcome! Bring a picnic
dinner but no alcohol, please. Alcohol will be available for purchase on board.
